Attacks from all sides

  First: Eight Republican opponents jumped into the race against Michael — including a Trump loyalist who attended the January 6th insurrection, and wealthy CEOs who raised roughly a million dollars each in the last quarter of 2021. One even used his own fortune to plaster the airwav…

[MEMO] Update on Colorado’s Senate race

  Hi folks, I’m Justin, Michael’s campaign manager. Now, that the midterm election is here, I wanted to give you an update on our path to re-elect Michael. Grassroots supporters like you are key to this team, so please read through, then pitch in $10 before our first fundraising dead…

I need your support

  Friend — Last year, this grassroots team stepped up to put us on solid-footing going into this election year. Now we’re facing our first end-of-month fundraising deadline of our election year, and I could use your help.  The National Republican Senatorial Committee raised an astoun…

Today marks the 49th anniversary of Roe v. Wade

  Today marks the 49th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade decision. And nearly 50 years after this declaration of reproductive freedom, Roe is still under attack. In fact, one of my opponents has filed legislation to outlaw abortion rights in Colorado. The decision to hav…

Will you start a monthly donation to my campaign today?

While I fight to deliver for folks like you, Mitch McConnell, the National GOP, and wealthy self-funded opponents here in Colorado are trying to flip my seat.   I’m running for re-election to expand on the progress we've delivered for Coloradans. Last year I negotiated tax cuts for w…

Hey folks!

  Hey folks, John here! I wanted to reach out for the first time this year as Michael’s team ramps up their work ahead of the election. You may not know this, but Michael Bennet is truly one of my best friends. He helped me during my successful run for mayor of Denver and then served…

An insurrectionist is gaining momentum in Colorado’s primary, folks

  FIRST: Proud January 6th insurrectionist and Michael’s leading Republican opponent, State Rep. Ron Hanks won a straw poll following a Republican primary debate, beating out other Republican Senate candidates. THEN: Republican Colorado State Representatives voted in favor of an amen…

One year ago today

  Friend, Today marks one year since President Biden was sworn in, so let's look back at all we’ve accomplished since then and the work that lies ahead. Once Democrats secured the Senate majority with the help of two historic wins in Georgia, we got straight to work passing the Ameri…

the honest truth, folks

  In a moment, I'm going to ask you to split a donation between my campaign and Michael Bennet’s — so we can keep Georgia and Colorado blue and protect our Democratic Senate majority. But first, let me explain why your support is so critical — and what could happen to the future of o…

re: Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act

  In June of 1965, the Voting Rights Act, which had been recently passed in the Senate, sat in the House awaiting approval. The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King wrote an editorial praising the hard-fought near-victory, but clarified that passing such sweeping voting rights legislation was…

re: $500,000

  Folks, Did you see Kelsey’s email below on Michael’s grassroots performance for last quarter? Folks like you stepped up in a big way but we can’t afford to get complacent. We just found out another one of Michael’s opponents contributed a milliom dollars last quarter.  Michael isn’…

Wealthy corporate CEOs are trying to flip Colorado

  Friend — Another one of Michael's GOP challengers released his fundraising numbers for last quarter. He raised nearly a million dollars with about half of it coming from his own wallet.  This is the second opponent to raise about a million dollars, and the second dumping hundreds o…

Underestimated...

I was underestimated, so I know doubting your opponents is a mistake.   When I became a Senator, I was underestimated. The GOP called me the “accidental Senator” and doubted my ability to deliver for Coloradans. Now, I’m running for reelection and this cycle I secured tax cuts for wor…

Another million dollars to defeat us

  Friend — One of Michael's GOP challengers raised $1 million last quarter. Much of that came from his own pocket — he’s using his own money in an attempt to buy this seat, and has already injected tens of thousands of dollars into this race to plaster misleading attack ads about Mic…

How you can help families recover from recent fires

One final respectful request of the year

  I’ll keep this quick. Before you log off for your New Year’s Eve celebrations, can you make a contribution of any amount to my reelection campaign? When the clock strikes midnight, we’ll be in a critical election year. If we don’t hit our final end-of-year goal, we won’t be able to…

My friend Michael Bennet and I are facing tough re-election fights

re: the final 2021 monthly Child Tax Credit payment
